* This was claimed to be the lightest 4T 250cc engine in the market.
* Engine is ready and I hope they keep financial healthy this time.
* Husky owners tested it before and few engine issues is known and can be fixed now.

There was a GasGas 315cc prototype on EICMA 2014 with this engine:

GasGas/Torrot people have been on this site confirming that they will not be using the old Husky tech that they had purchased. Any move to a 4T engine will be a completely new in house designs. So unless they backpedal on that decision I doubt we'll ever see that Italian Husky motor again.
Remember that this isn't just GasGas anymore. Torrot has seriously deep pockets and really wants to see success.
